Sláinte! TIME TO CELEBRATE!

We are in last minute preparations for what should be an epic weekend in NYC. The St. Patrick's Day celebrations begin in earnest on Saturday morning with the 252nd edition of theSt. Patrick's Day parade. Because the holiday itself falls on a Sunday, the parade will take place on Saturday instead (they never march on Sunday for religious observance).

The parade itself begins at 11am. That being said, we will be open bright and early at 10am for some pre-game Parade fun. Enjoy great EPL soccer, Six-Nations rugby, and great Irish music to get you into the mood for what will be a great day of celebrating!

As always, there's NO COVER CHARGE, but please be mindful of the following: While we want everyone to have a fun day, there will be ZERO TOLERANCE for unruly behavior. So, exercise common sense! Treat the day like a marathon, not a sprint! No outside containers will be allowed and bags and backpacks will be checked. We want your day to be a memorable one for all of the right reasons!

Keep in mind that the celebration doesn't stop with the parade on Saturday; We will also be open on St. Patrick's Day itself (Sunday, March 17th) at 12pm, ready for a full day of celebrating. If it's Bloody Mary's, Black Velvets, or a Guinness to get the "Hair of the Dog"on, we're ready to meet your needs. Plus, it's also NCAA Selection Sunday. With the March Madness set to begin this Tuesday, you'll want to tune in to see who's in and who's out!
